Coughing up memories of yesterday
Elderberry wine perfume
Telephone wire rip cords
Withered voices now silent
Alone within hallowed walls
Windowpane dusty eyes
A vouyer weeps, sleep walking
Among forgotten giants
Gold glitter star once shown
Bright in the night
New Moon smile
Champagne flowed freely
Like blood in the streets
Of Rome
